Avalanche Activity

Be careful in lee areas with wind deposited snow, typically behind ridges, ribs and in gullies. Wind slabs are especially easy to trigger where they are thin or soft.

Snø og tildels kraftig vind vil gje skredproblem med fersk fokksnø i leområder. Det er lett for skiløpar å løyse ut skred i denne fokksnøen.

Vær derfor varsom i bratte heng med fersk fokksnø.

Snowpack Structure

Vind og snø har gitt fokksnø av ulik hardheit i leområder. Fokksnøen er ujamnt fordelt. Ryggar og rabbar er avblåst. Det eldre snødekket er hardare og delvis smelteomdanna i låglandet etter mykje vind og mildvêr sist veke.

Tendency

Be careful in lee areas with wind deposited snow, typically behind ridges, ribs and in gullies. Naturally released loose avalanches can occur in steep terrain.
